Sotheby’s International Realty is a subsidiary of Sotheby’s, the international art auction house, which also owns Sotheby’s Diamonds, Sotheby’s Institute of Art, Sotheby’s Wine, and Sotheby’s Art Storage Facility.

Sotheby’s Auction House, the original Sotheby’s company, was founded in 1744, and the Sotheby’s name has become renowned as a marketer of the world’s most valuable and fine products, based as much on exceptional service to clients as on the notable art, antiques, jewelry and other Sotheby’s holdings. Founded on the same commitment to exceptional service, Sotheby’s International Realty was founded in 1976 and quickly rose to worldwide prominence for the distinctive properties it represents. In 2004, Sotheby’s International Realty entered into a strategic alliance with Realogy Corporation, the world’s leading real estate brokerage franchisor, and began expanding through franchise partnerships. Within 10 months, Sotheby’s International Realty grew to more than 100 affiliated locations. Today the company has more than 600 offices in 45 countries and territories worldwide.
